No. 3 Mississippi 34, Tennessee 3: Bo Wallace threw for 199 yards and a pair of touchdowns while the Rebels forced four turnovers en route to an SEC victory over the visiting Volunteers.

Josh Malone gained 75 yards on five receptions for the Volunteers, who held a 3-0 lead after Aaron Medley’s 27-yard field goal early in the second quarter.

Wallace changed the momentum with a 39-yard scoring strike to Sanders down the right sideline with 5:08 left in the second quarter. Senquez Golson recorded the first of his two interceptions on the next series and five plays later Walton ran 7 yards for a touchdown as Ole Miss built its lead to 14-3 at halftime.

Walton ran 40 yards to set up Gary Wunderlich’s 34-yard field goal with 2:04 left in the third and Tennessee fumbled the ensuing kickoff. Wallace lofted a 28-yard touchdown pass to a diving Evan Engram on the next play from scrimmage to stretch the lead to 24-3 and the Rebels were on their way.
